“Many [] successful people [] are very deliberate about randomness [like Brad Feld]. [] Brad has regularly held “random days” when he’ll meet anyone to talk about anything [].” That’s how TechStars arose when Cohen met Feld on a random day.

“Being open to randomness is about more than just taking meetings []. It’s the idea of trying something you really have no reason to try. Recognize [] that someone you meet or something that you do might ultimately be able to help you in some completely unexpected way. If you’re not open to randomness, you may miss a huge opportunity [].” David Cohen, Do More Faster by David Cohen & Brad Feld, copyrt 2011, pg. 109-110
